Mast HeadsBy Joseph Shepherd

From researching magazine mastheads I have learnt that most of them use some shade of red, this makes it a convention. I believe they do this because red provides a good contrast against most colours and thus would be quite eye grabbing on a magazine rack.

When making my magazine, I plan to follow codes and conventions and make use of the color red but would like to try and developed it by throwing in more shades of colour maybe some black, yellow maybe even possibly green.

I have also learnt that most magazine mastheads make use of bold text this makes it look strong and powerful on a cover and make it present itself as the best magazine out there.
